How to watch Inside No. 9: The Party's Over

Inside No. 9: The Party's Over will air on 22nd December at 9pm on BBC Two.

It will also be available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

Speaking to Radio Times magazine ahead of the final season release, Pemberton discussed what it was like working with his co-creator and co-star.

"One of the joys of working with another person is you don't feel alone and that takes the pressure off both of us. I think Reece is a more glass-half-empty person than me.

"For example, he feels that Inside No. 9 has never quite had the acclaim that other shows get, it hasn't had that global recognition.

"I spend a lot of time talking him down – and up – from those feelings, because Inside No. 9 has had such an amazing reaction, such acclaim! It's won many awards, including BAFTAs for direction, performance, for show, for writing – you can't get much better. And it is respected throughout the industry. We're both very, very proud of it."

Pemberton also revealed that his one "concern" about the show wrapping for good is "to do with feeling creatively wrung out".

"It's not the fear that no one will want to work with us, or that no one will remember us," he added. "I think we've made our mark."

What will Inside No. 9: The Party's Over cover?

In The Party's Over, cameras track Pemberton and Shearsmith as they and shoot the final ever season of Inside No. 9 – comprising of episodes Boo to a Goose, The Trolley Problem, Mulberry Close, CTRL ALT ESC, The Curse of The Ninth and Plodding On.

The documentary features footage Pemberton and Shearsmith filmed of each other from their phones, as well as giving a film crew access to all areas of their production; the writers' room to the rehearsals, the props department to the sets.

The show's production team and cast from the anthology series appear in interviews to give their take on the scripts, why they signed up for an appearance on Inside No. 9, and their favourite moments from filming.

As they reflect on their past decade of work, Steve and Reece also delve into their careers as a comedic duo – including the show that shot them to fame, The League of Gentlemen, and their smash-hit Psychoville.

It opens up about the secrets to their dark comedy and unique partnership that has brought their bizarre world to the screen, too.

The official synopsis, as revealed by the BBC, is as follows: "This documentary tells the story of one of TV’s darkest and most celebrated comedies, featuring cast interviews and extensive candid moments with creators Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton.

"Cameras are admitted everywhere throughout the making of the show’s final series, from the writers’ room to the makeup trailer, from prop store to set design, making this the perfect farewell to the multi-award winning series."
